Integration of a pressure sensor element – error compensation of signal for zero point and span
Christian Wirl | Know-howThe installation of a sensor element or a corresponding assembly has the advantage that very compact dimensions are possible. However, some points need to be taken into account, which are an additional effort for the customer compared to using a fully adjusted sensor …
Which are the available configuration levels for pressure sensors?
Christian Wirl | PressureThe various possible configuration levels for a pressure measurement solution are not defined conceptually in any standard. At WIKA we have chosen the following terminology: A pressure sensor (also pressure transmitter) delivers a standardised, …
Long-term stability vs. long-term drift
Christian Wirl | Know-howA value for long-term stability or long-term drift is usually given in the data sheets for pressure sensors. However, very few users are familiar with the exact meaning and, above all, the distinction between the two terms. Which standards are the two terms defined …
